The object has weight - that is, gravity is pulling it down.
However, the table is in the way, and it gets "squashed" by the object's weight, so it exerts a "normal reaction force" upwards on the object.
The downward weight and upward reaction force cancel out, so the book stays still on the table.

What is an example of a balanced force acting on an object?
Take the example of a book resting on a table. The downward force of the book's weight is matched exactly by the upward resistance of the table - hence the book remains where it is. (If the table was very flimsy, and unable to support the weight of the book, the book would accelerate towards the ground.)

Where was there said to be a UFO crash in Idaho?
On June 30, 2009, there was a sighting of an Unidentified Flying Object first thought to be a plane about to crash in the Owyhee Mountains region of Idaho. It was falling very fast toward the ground and abruptly stopped, hovering 3-4 feet above the ground for a second. It then moved off very fast at a 45 degree angle and once again appeared as if it was going to crash, but it din't. The object was reported to have reall brith, big white lights and smaller blue ones in a pattern of blue, white, blue, white.

A field who has data type that can store an OLE object which is an object linked to or embedded in the table?
The field in the database can store OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) objects, which are either linked to or embedded within the table. This allows users to insert objects like images, videos, or documents directly into the database field. OLE objects enable the database to manage and display these objects within the table.
